"Scope, scale and breadth are far superior and comprehensive…its comprehensive nature is larger/more grand than any two books I may/already use."

Required textbook but not so much for mandatory reading
I was looking forward to the class that I needed this book for, and yet I feel that the book reads like a cliff notes. It doesn't expand as much as I would like it to, ex: I was required to write a Professional Disclosure Statement (PDS) for the class and was referred to look at page 132 (shown in picture). I was expecting to see an example of a PDS, or at least a breakdown of what it is and what should be included. P. 132 literally mentions PDS in italics and that's it. There's nothing in the appendix, and it was frustrating to have to Google what goes into a PDS as well as examples of ones in use. The book does that with more topics than I'd like to mention - it assumes that you know what it's supposed to be teaching you.
